[JURIST] The appellate division of the War Crimes Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) [official website] on Friday sentenced [press release] Sefik Alic, a Muslim commander, to 10 years in prison, overturning his 2008 acquittal. The prosecutor appealed the original verdict on the grounds that the lower court “erroneously and incompletely established the state of facts” leading it to misapply the law. Alic was convicted of failing to prevent the deaths of four prisoners in his custody and participating in their inhumane treatment [SE Times report]. At trial, the prosecution provided testimony from witnesses [Reuters report] as well as video footage and audio recordings. Alic denied having the command authority for the prisoners.
